Chains of Love

Not too sexy, not too cute. Just right.

Nude Neutrals

There's nothing bland or boring about this Spijkers en Spijkers dress. It's one of the few babydoll styles that manage to exude that Lolita appeal without making one look pregnant.

It doesn't hurt that this dress was paired with a beautiful Rebecca Lau necklace:

Might as well check out the matching earrings while we're at it:

Lookin' good at Eva NYC.

Have a Happy Tactile Thanksgiving

I've been captivated by lovely textiles for the home.

No Candy Striper Here

If I took tie fabric and made it into a top, I'd want it to look this good.

In da Hood

I prefer to stay in bed on dreary Monday mornings, but the next best thing would be to bundle up in a cozy sweater dress with kickass boots.

Swingin' It

The full bottom half of this coat softens what would otherwise be a drab tweed.

Black Magic

Classic with a twist, these earrings give more oomph to an outfit than your basic white diamond studs.

I spent the morning uploading photos from the August posts and onward to Photobucket. This way I'll stop hogging bandwidth from etailers, and the pics will be here after items are sold out at their sites.

I'll save resizing for a rainy day.

Bling it On

My obsession with shiny things continues unabated.

We'll pretend I can afford this Jill Stuart dress and Chloe trench.

Both at Net-a-Porter.

I took one glance at this skirt and broke out in a fit of delighted giggles:

Perfect for the coquette.

My Bookmarks

Today I received a request for links to shopping sites I frequent. That list has grown quite a bit in the past two years, and I still add to it regularly. Sometimes I happen across a new site when I Google designers or check the stockist links on their sites. Other times, I find them when searching designers on Grechen's Closet. I can't forget shopping forums, which are a wealth of information.

If there are any retailers who'd like to be added to the list, please leave a comment.

Without further ado, here is the list:
